Draft Grade — Eagles
Overall D-
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Eagles to a D-.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Que Robinson; the Eagles did not wait, grabbing him 62 spots ahead at slot 123. The math is unkind, and the D- follows.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. The running back spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Bryant.

They went 8 of 9 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and running back is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick32 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In pick 32 they get an anchor for the defensive front, and a steal at that. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick64 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
Harold Fannin Jr. is a better player than No. 64 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick67 Rnd3 Jack Bech
They paid sticker price for Jack Bech in the 67th pick, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick96 Rnd3 Chris Paul Jr.
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Chris Paul Jr. at the 96th overall pick. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick104 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
No drama and no debate, Jared Wilson went about where he belonged in Round 4, Pick 2. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick123 Rnd4 Que Robinson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Que Robinson well ahead of where he belonged. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick134 Rnd4 Denzel Burke
Denzel Burke at the Round 4 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick156 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore in No. 156 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick161 Rnd5 Clay Webb
They reached into another round for Clay Webb, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick164 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
Taking Tyler Shough in the 164th overall pick is close to grand larceny; a quarterback that good had no business lasting this long. It fills a real need, too.
Pick165 Rnd5 Cobee Bryant
The board fumbled Cobee Bryant all the way to pick No. 165, and they scooped it up. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick168 Rnd5 Howard Cross III
They talked themselves into Howard Cross III at the 168th pick, and the board did not agree. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick179 Rnd6 Logan Brown
You do not let an offensive lineman like Logan Brown reach pick 179 and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick216 Rnd6 Craig Woodson
A straight-up fair deal on Craig Woodson at Round 6, Pick 40, value and slot in agreement. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
